Plug Headphone/Mic into monitor instead of pc

[fireflyzc12]

I currently have my headphones/mic plugged into my front panel options. Lately there have been a few bugs with it so I was wondering how to plug them into my monitor instead. I use a jack splitter on my headphones that has a mic on it. When I do try to plug it into my monitor no sound comes out and the mic doesn't work. Is there a way to change that or do I need to plug it into my pc.

Edit: When I plugged my headset into my monitor it switched from the check to a telephone icon. Also when plugged in sound came from neither my monitor nor my headset.

Here is my monitor: AOC AGON AG271QX
Headset: Kingston HyperX Cloud Stinger

Please ensure that you have the sound settings correct:

Using the rear jacks tends to be easier and usually involves less hassles. Might be worth considerig.

I would do that but since I have to use a jack splitter I cannot extend my headset that far. I am also using Displayport so I don't know if that maybe an issue

Also Display is not an option in my playback list and it isn't in Device Manager either.
